Dale's take on Burlington

I've pulled plenty of old boats out of Burlington backyards. Some came with the house when someone inherited the property and didn't want the liability sitting there. Others have been listed for a season with zero interest, and the owner finally stopped checking the listing. A few are storage lot finds, where the slip bill or yard fee climbed higher than the boat's worth, and someone decided enough was enough. Dead motors with repair quotes that cost more than the hull itself show up regularly too.

Hansons Boat Removal handles the full job for Burlington and the surrounding area, and we pick up jobs in Winooski the same afternoon whenever the schedule lines up. We assess the junk boat where it sits, arrange the tow, and handle start to finish logistics for the estate cleanout or vessel recovery. Missing paperwork does not stop the job, details on the Vermont page.

A job we ran in Burlington

Small catamaran sailboat with faded hulls resting on a trailer beside a house

Boat Removal in Burlington, Vermont

That Hobie catamaran hadn't touched Lake Champlain water in at least eight years when the call came in. It had been bought secondhand for a summer of sailing lessons that never really took off, then it sat, first under a cover, then without one once the cover wore through. Trying to sell a small catamaran with sun-bleached hulls and a torn sail turned out harder than expected, two listings, no serious offers either time.

Common questions about Burlington boat removal

How much does boat removal cost in Burlington?
Cost in Burlington starts where the pricing above starts, and the boat itself sets the rest: size, where it sits, condition, and the haul. Send photos and the ZIP, the number you get is the number you pay.
Is boat removal ever free in Burlington?
Free removal in Burlington depends on what the boat still has going for it. Salvage value covers some jobs entirely. We look at photos, tell you straight which case is yours, then schedule.
Can you remove a boat without a title in Burlington?
Yes. Vermont titles boats conditionally. And missing paperwork is one of the most common things we see in Burlington. What we need from you is on the Vermont page, in the legal section.
How fast can you pick up a boat in Burlington?
Most Burlington jobs are scheduled within a couple of days. The window is confirmed the day before, and the crew calls when they are an hour out. Rush jobs depend on the route, call early.
Do I have to be there for the pickup?
No. Out-of-state owners are half this business. The crew documents the pickup with photos, you approve, and the paperwork closes out remotely.
Can you take the trailer too?
Yes. The trailer usually goes with the boat, and its condition does not matter. If it rolls, we tow it. If it does not, it rides on the truck.
What kinds of boats do you take in Burlington?
Any of them. Fiberglass cruisers, aluminum fishing boats, pontoons, sailboats, jet skis. No engine, flat tires, full of leaves and rainwater, still yes. If it was supposed to float, we haul it.
